Boulevard! A Hollywood Story

AudienceAudience: 6.8

Dickson Hughes and Richard Stapley, two young songwriters and romantic partners, find themselves caught in movie star Gloria Swanson's web when she hires them to write a musical version of "Sunset Boulevard."

My take

A intimate portrait of three lives intertwined by music and ambition across America's most storied cities. This is the kind of documentary that captures how a single moment in time can reshape everything—melancholic, searching, and deeply human.
